| Lift him up and carry him along, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Put him down where he belongs, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Ease him down and let him lay, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Screw him in and there he'll stay. | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Put him in his hole below, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Stay he must and then he'll go. | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| When I get back to Liverpool Town, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| I'll toss a line to little Sally Brown. | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| I'll haul her high and haul her low, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| I'll bust her blocks and make her go. | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Sally is a pretty little craft, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Hot shot to the fore & rounded in the aft. | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Screw the cart and screw him down, | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
| Let's get the hell back to Liverpool Town. | |
| Fire maringo, fire him away! | |
